[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 303746, member: 1550"] Hi again. Even if your husband adopted her, she is still biologically her birthfather's child and could have inherited something from his side of the family. If he is a drug abuser, mood disorders usually go along with that and they are inherited. That's why we ask. Did she have any neuropsychologist testing or just school testing? My advice is to get a neuropsychologist evaluation. If the medications and therapy are not working the diagnosis could be wrong which could be why she is so out of control. Medication only helps if it is the right diagnosis plus the right medications for THAT child...all are different. If she is not getting any better, I suggest you re-visit the evaluation process, and maybe seek a different opinion. I would not trust the school district to give any diagnosis or advice. They tend not to hire the best and brightest or do very good testing. You really need to nip this before she gets older and you CAN'T control her because of her age. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
